The K-LD2 is a fully digital and low-cost radar movement detector, designed for effortless integration into diverse applications. Its intuitive digital architecture simplifies deployment in any stand-alone or MCU-based system requiring precise movement detection or speed measurement. This makes it an ideal solution for a wide range of industries, from smart home automation to industrial sensing and security systems.
At its core, the K-LD2 sensor features a robust 2 × 4 patch radar front-end, boasting an asymmetrical beam for optimized coverage. This is coupled with a powerful signal processing unit that provides two digital outputs for clear signal detection information. Developers will appreciate the flexibility offered by adjustable sensitivity and hold time, easily controlled via analogue inputs with potentiometers. Furthermore, the integrated serial interface unlocks a powerful command set, enabling users to read out advanced detection data or fully customize the detection algorithm to meet specific project needs. This level of control empowers you to fine-tune performance and achieve unparalleled accuracy for your unique application.
A significant advantage of the K-LD2 is the elimination of complex development tasks. There’s no need to write your own intricate signal processing algorithms or grapple with small and noisy signals. This comprehensive module delivers everything necessary to build a simple, yet exceptionally reliable movement detector right out of the box. Its remarkably small footprint of just 25 × 25 × 6.5 mm ensures maximum flexibility in the product development process, allowing for seamless integration even into compact designs. To further accelerate your development, a powerful evaluation kit with intuitive signal visualization on a PC is readily available, providing a clear window into the sensor’s performance and simplifying the prototyping phase. Discover how the K-LD2 can elevate your next project with its advanced capabilities and user-friendly design.
